Reports are surfacing that Madonna is finally going to get full adoption rights to David Banda. The Queen of Pop has been caring for an 18-month interim custody order which was granted back in 2006. A leaked official document referring to Madonna and hubby Guy Ritchie says “Mr. and Mrs. Ritchie have shown a strong commitment in providing the infant with all essential needs like love, safe home environment, care, protection, material as well as emotional support.” The court will hear a full review of the case on May 15th but Madonna will not be required during the hearing. However, if the adoption is granted, she will have to come to court to sign the documents.
The Madonna and Mariah Carey battle has been going on for a while. Who will sell more albums? Who will break more records? Now, the question is whose film will be better? Both the divas have films screening at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Madonna’s ‘I Am Because We Are’ premiered on Thursday. Her film is a documentary focusing on the severe issues in Malawi in which Madonna was a writer, producer and narrator for. Mariah’s film ‘Tennessee’ will premiere on Saturday. Mariah acts in the film as a waitress with singing dreams to pursue in Tennessee. Considering that she’s acting in this one, I’ll give Madonna the award right now.
Madonna will massively extend her home in New York – sparking more rumours that she plans to split from British hubby Guy Ritchie.
The superstar singer, 49, has won a legal fight to buy a third $7million apartment in the Manhattan block where she already has a huge two-storey pad.
It will do nothing to quash reports the mum of three’s seven-year marriage to British film director Guy, 39, is in trouble.
A source close to her staff said: “Madonna has made it clear for a while she wants to extend her place in New York. She loves the city and wants to spend more time there.”
Madge, who also has homes in London and Wiltshire, sued the board of the block on Central Park West after it tried to stop her from buying another apartment there. She has had a apartment for 20 years in the building, which includes its own gym.
The singer has denied any marriage rift.
And Guy’s dad John has insisted the pair have been kept apart lately only by work. She is promoting new album Hard Candy while Guy works on a film. John said recently: “They’re happy. I was shocked when I read they were supposed to be having problems. They’ve been running around different places. That’s why they haven’t been seen together. She won’t be going out to America to live for good. They’ve got lovely places here in Britain.”
There’s practically nothing left in the world that Madonna hasn’t conquered but as she tells Q magazine, apparently there still is. The Queen of Pop tells the magazine “What else is there for me to conquer? Hopefully my ego. How will I know when I’ve succeeded? When I stop caring what anyone thinks.” If you ask my opinion, I think she’s already done that. If her actions are anything to go by, we all know that she doesn’t care anymore. She’s obviously proud of who she is and she’s flaunting it all the way! I think she can now say that there’s really nothing left for her to conquer.
